Shrimp metabolism: The roles of lactate dehydrogenase (c31), glycogen phosphorylase (c34) and protein kinase (PK) as revealed by RNA interference
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2015)
Energy metabolism is well-studied in vertebrate systems, providing insights on the genes and mechanisms involved in different pathways necessary for the survival of an organism. Yet, such studies are still lacking in ...
Marker-aided genetic stock management: prospects in Philippine aquatic biodiversity conservation and aquaculture
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2015)
With the advent of DNA marker-based technologies and applications, genetic stock assessment incorporating molecular marker information has become an important tool in managing resources both for aquaculture and stock ...
Updates on the seed production of mud crab
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2015)
Widespread interest in mud crab species is increasing because these are highly prized both in domestic and export markets. Among the three mud crab species commonly found in the Philippines, Scylla serrata, S. olivacea, ...
Current status of acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) and other transboundary diseases of farmed shrimps in Indonesia
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2016)
Transboundary diseases have been a constant challenge for the aquaculture industry in Indonesia. In spite of this, Indonesian aquaculture has experienced a steady growth since 2010. Early mortality syndrome (EMS) or acute ...
Current status of shrimp farming and diseases in Cambodia
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2016)
The farming of penaeid shrimps in Cambodia began in 1989 and has significantly expanded since 1991. Shrimp cultivation has been carried out in the four coastal provinces, i.e. Kampot, Kep, Preah Sihanouk Ville, and Koh ...
Feed formulation for sustainable aquaculture
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2015)
As aquaculture production of tropical fish and crustacean species becomes more intensified, practical diets need to be formulated to be cost effective and environment-friendly. Ingredients should be included to satisfy the ...
Potential of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.) meal as an alternative protein source in diets for giant freshwater prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii, de Man 1879)
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2015)
Growth trials were conducted to evaluate cowpea Vigna unguiculata (L.) meal as a potential protein source in diets for giant freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii (de Man 1879), reared in tank and lake-based cages. ...
Status of acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) and other emerging diseases of penaeid shrimps in Viet Nam
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2016)
Acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND), formerly called early mortality syndrome (EMS), was first reported in 2010 among penaeid shrimps cultivated in the Mekong Delta Region of Viet Nam albeit without any laboratory ...
Estimation of energy budget of sea cucumber, Holothuria scabra, in integrated multi-trophic aquaculture
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2015)
Continuous intensification of aquaculture production has brought about environmental issues associated with eutrophication worldwide. Environmental deterioration such as hypoxia and sulfide production due to water and ...
Responsible shrimp culture through ecological approach
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2015)
Aquaculture is the fastest food-producing sector. It is the farming of aquatic organisms, like crustaceans, fish, molluscs and plants. Culture of aquatic organisms, particularly shrimps, is usually done in earthen ponds ...
